Also, part of the legend of Disney theme parks is the long lines where families can really get some quality time to bond and spend time talking to each other, since most of our lives are too hectic to communicate much more than a "good morning" or "good night" to one another. I gues I'm in favor of a "reverse" fastpass, where you can actually lengthen the time spent with the family in line.)

And dvc_dad, while I for one appreciated your heartfelt response, and I feel your pain, I think there's plenty of room to stand up and say "hey, wait a minute - what's with the personal attack, buddy?" Things get misunderstood all the time, but no one has the right to go off like 47 did. There's a way to keep the peace while still letting someone know that they are in the wrong, and 47 was most definitely in the wrong!
Originally Posted By DVC_dad Concerning the post that goofy47 left, I missed it, the admin got it before I could read it. But, I am indifferent to the whole thing now. It's not worth anymore time nor effort. Good day Citizen goofy47.

I appreciate your kind words, those who have been following this rediculous tangent from the original post thus far. I have no problem with anyone here on LP. I prefer to keep it that way. So far I haven't said anything I shouldn't have, and I don't plan to. Besides if you stick around these types of boards long enough, people's true colors come out eventually. See you 'round people. vbDAD, you and RoadTrip, and Peeaanut, Dave in Merced, Mr X, Kylesmom, danyoung, and several others, you are great people and fun to chat with. I'll miss you all. You are known by the company you keep and you guys are awesome. Nope... no way, not even a parting shot. Tempting, yes, but I'll leave with my head held high. Forever Mickey!

It's a pleasure to meet you demderedoseguys. Okay where was I? Oh yeah, lurking.

And that is about the worst jab I am going to take as the poor guy. Thank you for the support. You people are awesome! Forever Mickey!
